allhx - the history of everything

What allhx does:

In medical terms "hx" stands for "history" and so "allhx" (pronouced "all-x") is about the history of everything - people, places and things. You can read more on the allhx blog.

What we aspire to:

A B Corp (Benefit Corporation). Simply put, a B Corp exists "to provide a financial return...and to deliver material social benefits to society." That's why, among other things, we committed on day 1 to flow 10% of profit to local charities.

Where we're at:

The history of everything is a tall order, so we had to pick a starting point. Because places play such a meaningful role in history, we decided to start there. In the spring of 2012 we went live with over a million locations in the Greater Toronto Area.

Update: January 2014 - We added 8MM+ addresses in Florida. Most records include property boundary information, the size of the property and the living area of any buildings.

Update: August 2013 - We recently launched our US site www.theaddressproject.com with 300k+ addresses in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Update: June 2013 - New Brunswick, Quebec and the 3 territories are coming online!
